    The food had was good, unusual cod dishes. The problem is that all three of us were not thrilled about the taste. Maybe this is just not our taste. They specialize in cod fish, but have some dishes with other ingredients.

    This restaurant was recommended to us by a friend and what a wonderful find. Everything from the service to the quality of the food was excellent. A great way to try bacalhau local and regional specialties, the bras was the best I have ever tasted.

    A very pleasant experience. I enjoy specialty restaurants such as this one, bacalhau being the specialty in this case. Professional staff, an ample environment and fresh food. You must order the pataniscas to start with!!

    The restaurant is incredible. The food is wonderful, the service is excellent and the atmosphere is very beautiful and cozy. The price becomes a mere detail in this experience.

    It was a very good restaurant but the food was mostly something else and too little Codfish.

    I loved everything about our dinner at Laurentina. It was a classic, old school restaurant that helped my first trip to Portugal feel complete. It was a nice alternative to Ramiro and our server, Vitor, could not have been more experienced and charming. We loved the food and ambience. I highly recommend this restaurant to locals and visitors. You will not be disappointed.

    The appetizers we didn’t order were moved and put closer to us to make us eat them. Then they were put on the bill… I had to ask them to take it off. The service was quick and cordial, although they didn’t bring us the right meal at first. Food was good but I cannot compare, as it was my first time eating bacalhau in Lisbon. Good experience, nice restaurant, but I would’t go back.

    Only one waiter looking after one row. When he would get late the others wouldn’t jump in to help. When one had to help he was obviously upset…

    Service was slow. Waiter was nice and pleasant. Could have better oriented our orders that ended up being too much food with substantial waste. Price in this occasion seemed to be higher than justified by comparison with other places. My impression is that the most important asset of this restaurant is the name and fame.

    Delicious food, but the waiter who served us are not so sympathic. For the price we pay in that restaurant, the staff should be more cordial. This spoiled the experience a bit.

    It was great! The service is perfect. Everyone is so nice. The ambient is comfortable, suitable for gathering. It's a little slow for the food to come up but it's fine. The food tasted normal as random good Portuguese food. For all the price and service, I think I'll go again.

    We are foodies and we wanted to have the best bacalhau in Lisbon! This place came highly recommended both on Google and by locals. We had as starters to share a portion (2 pieces) of Pasteis de Bacalhau (cod fish cakes) and a portion (4 pieces) of Alheiras (chorizo croquettes), then we had Bacalhau a Bras and Bacalhau com Nata, all of the food was amazing. The service was slow and also just one waiter spoke English and a little bit of Italian. I'll recommend it but I believe that they should improve their service in order to be the true King of Cod!!

    It's too expensive. A plate of Bacalhau à Brás, good but absolutely normal, simple and standard for Portugal cannot cost 18.5 Euro. Same goes for desserts, the typical, standard Portuguese ones (baba de camelo, mousse de chocolate, etc.) cost minimum 5.5 Euro. Way, way overpriced and unjustified because it's not an out-of-this-world culinary experience, just your typical Portuguese good food.
